30. The shapes of calix[4]arenes are usually discussed in terms of four basic conformations: cone, partial cone, 1,2-alternate, and 1,3-alternate. For a discussion, see ref 1c, pp 41-46, and ref 1d, pp 1-10. Introduction of sufficiently large substituents onto the phenolic oxygens restricts conformational interconversion. Calixarenes 6 and 7 (as well as 3-5) are frozen in the cone conformation because of the method of preparation of starting materials 1 and 2 (see refs 13 and: (a) Groenen, L. C.; Ruël, B. H. M.; Casnati, A.; Timmerman, P.; Verboom, W.; Harkema, S.; Pochini, A.; Ungaro, R.; Reinhoudt, D. N. Tetrahedron Lett. 1991, 32, 2675-2678.
